Description
On this particular December day the normally quite arid high desert of Lassen County California got an inch and a half of rain in just a few hours. Mr. Mule Deer didn’t have the option to come in out of the rain. Mike Lee apparently just didn’t have the sense!
In late fall and early winter the rut is fully underway for mule deer bucks. Therefore, this guy was way more concerned with procreation than precipitation. To capture this frame over some bushes that were in the way I climbed up on the back bumper of my pickup and looped an arm over my ladder rack to keep from taking a dive to the pavement I was parked on. It was less than ideal from a safety standpoint but it worked out. I got the photo and Mr. Muley went about losing his mind over the half dozen or so does that were in the vicinity.
